A huge tallic object, like a Bird’s Nest, stood prominently amidst nurous discarded items.
This was the only place on Snow Mine Star where people could live, other than the eggshell-shaped dwelling owned by Su Li.
As for Su Li’s eggshell, it was originally a small Flying Device brought by the original owner.
After becoming the Lord of this garbage star, the original owner had put a lot of effort into transforming this peculiar building to improve the inhabitants’ lives.
Even so, under the increasingly harsh conditions on this garbage star, the Bird’s Nest appeared sowhat obscure and unsightly compared to Su Li’s small and exquisite eggshell.
This was perhaps one of the points of conflict.
Xiao Hei and others surrounded the elderly man ntioned before, each wearing protective shields, swiftly appearing beneath the Bird’s Nest.
At the East Corner’s tal gate, which then opened, people entered in single file.
Once inside, they removed their masks, shook their bodies, and a full layer of yellow sand fell to the ground, covering it completely.
One of the young n cursed as he kicked out, "Damn weather, damn Bird’s Nest."
Due to the building’s age and the lack of tily repairs, even though they had entered and the tal gate was tightly shut, a slight dusty sll still blew in through the gaps.
"Xiao Er, what are you doing? You’ve gotten everyone’s mouths full of dust," soone called out.
His actions drew complaints from those around him.
Xiao Er, unhappy, imdiately retorted with his neck stiffened, "Why are you all attacking , go argue with the Lord if you dare."
"Look at where he lives, and then look at where we live... and he still claims he’s doing it for our good."
"I tell you, most of the resources we collect each month must be pocketed by him."
"Xiao Er, don’t talk nonsense," the elderly man earlier scolded displeasedly, and Xiao Er, who had been defiant, imdiately softened his attitude, obediently saying with his head bowed, "Understood, great-grandpa."
Even though the old man knew that Xiao Er’s speculations were baseless and the Lord truly had their best interests at heart, he didn’t explain. Instead, these reckless and suspicious thoughts continued to fernt in the minds of the younger generation.
The Lord, no matter how good, still wasn’t one of the native people of Snow Mine Star.
The old man was grateful for the Lord’s efforts, but he wasn’t willing to let the control of the planet fall into the hands of an outsider.
The remaining people of Snow Mine Star, all sharing the sa surna and bloodline, were truly united.
The old man’s real thoughts were as such, the initial choice was rely a temporary asure. Now that they had gotten through the hard tis and the younger generation had grown stronger, it was ti to consider having soone else take over the Lord’s duty.
The old man’s gaze swept across the faces around him, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
Once inside the building, everyone who had taken off their masks revealed their true faces.
Surprisingly, all of these individuals were young, both male and female, each exuding confidence.
They were the cream of the crop among the youth who had grown up in the past decade, indeed having the capital for self-pride.
If Su Li was here, she would recognize that aside from Xiao Hei, most of them were mbers of the Lord’s Guard.
The others were also prominently trained by the original owner.
Regrettably, these people, who had received enormous grace from the original owner, all rebelled, showing no respect or admiration in their words.
One might wonder if it was the old man’s brainwashing skills that were outstanding or if it was in the bones of the planet’s natives to be cold and selfish.
"Let’s go in first and inform Xue’er to co over and check on Xiao Hei; the Lord has gone too far this ti..."
Following the old man’s command, everyone promptly sprang into action.
Further inside, they discovered that the Bird’s Nest was divided into four sections.
The East Corner was a learning area for the children, the West Corner was a care spot for the elderly, and the South and North Corners were the living spaces for the working-age inhabitants of Snow Mine Star.
Before that, Xiao Hei had demanded benefits from Su Li for the East and West Corners.
In the past, whenever these two areas were ntioned, the original owner, despite hardships, would always find a way to resolve their issues.
The children of the East Corner represented hope and couldn’t be neglected, the elderly of the West Corner had also contributed to the developnt of Snow Mine Star to so extent and shouldn’t be overlooked, lest it chilled people’s hearts.
As a result, only the original owner himself would end up in a disadvantage.
Now, the old man and Xiao Hei’s group had entered through the East Gate.
When they entered, it was school ti.
A huge playground-like area surrounded by several display screens descending from above.
n and won aged between five and twenty chose content of interest and stood in front of one of the screens.
So studied chanics, others learned Martial Arts...
On closer inspection, it beca evident that everything taught here was practically oriented.
There was no frivolous content.
Clearly, the original owner, as the current Lord, was indeed very conscientious.
Soone with sharp eyes spotted the group led by the old man and loudly called out, "Great-grandpa..."
Others, hearing the shout, also stopped their activities and sward over enthusiastically.
This scene clearly showed the old man’s status in the hearts of the natives.
In fact, the old man did hold a special status; he was one of the oldest elders among the natives.
These children were almost all people he had watched grow up, even many of their parents had grown up under his supervision.
Having been through the darkest, most desperate tis together, their bonds were profoundly deep, making it difficult for outsiders to intervene.
If the Lord was their political leader, the old man was their spiritual leader.
Initially, it was also due to the old man’s suggestion and nomination that the original owner, an outsider, could easily assu the position of the Lord.
Of course, there were also reasons others were unwilling to take on the role.
But now, the natives wouldn’t think this way. What they thought could be seen from the actions of the old man up to now.
In addition, so noticed Xiao Hei’s poor condition, and without needing to ask, Xiao Er angrily exaggerated the cause.
"How can the Lord act like this..." many murmured in discontent.
However, Su Li was not only capable of such actions; she could go even further.
Hehe, it’s about exploiting people, so what...
Inside the eggshell dwelling, Su Li, in a short amount of ti, had upgraded her Flying Device functional eggshell.
The batch of energy bodies, originally intended for use on the Bird’s Nest construction, was consud in just a few seconds by her.
